Just enter the default IP in a web browser. It should be 192.168.0.1User: Admin Password: [none / blank] Unless it has been configured. To clear setting, just hold the reset in the back till it cycles.

You need to log into the dlink router and look at the Wireless Security
and you will see the password. To get into the router you will need the
ip address of the router, the default user id and the password. You
manual will give you this info if you do not know it.

Get online
and got to www.google.com In the google search box type: "Dlink
Support" (without the quotes and put your manufacturer name before Support).
Look for downloads and drivers. Enter your model number and operating
system when requested. Look for Manuals.

The IP address to put in your browser to get into the router is: 192.168.0.1

the default dlink password is password or 1234if that doesn't work then the password has been changed and you will need to reset the router to factory defaults. hold the reset button for 30 seconds while powered on.

In order to get your router back to the original settings, you must push
in the reset button (usually on the back of the router) for somewhere
between 10 and 30 seconds depending on the router. You may need a pin or
something small to push in the button, because it can be recessed. Once
you have reset the router, the username and password will be changed to
the defaults, admin and password, respectively. One thing you must
remember is that resetting the router will change all of the router
settings back to the factory settings. This means you will lose all of
the changes you made since you got the router. Make sure to write down
any things you've changed, so you can change them back after the reset.
Also, I recommend updating to the latest firmware after the reset.

If you forgot your password, you must reset your router. Unfortunately this process will change all your settings back to the factory defaults. To reset the router, locate the reset button (hole) on the rear panel of the unit. With the router powered on, use a paperclip to hold the button down for 10 seconds. Release the button and the router will go through its reboot process. Wait about 30 seconds to access the router. The default IP address is 192.168.0.1. When logging in, the username is admin and leave the password box empty.

It appears your brother has changed your wireless router settings.

Chechy,
The routers I have had will default to the factory password if you press and hold the reset button in for a while. On the linksys brand it defaults to ADMIN. Lookin the manual for your router and looker for RESET and you may find something similar to this in the instructions. If you don't have them you can find them on line.
Let me know if you need more help.
